Adhyaya 39 — Yoga Discipline: Posture, Breath Control, Sense Withdrawal, and Signs of Attainment
आलोल्यमारोग्यमनिष्ठुरत्वं गन्धः शुभो मूत्रपुरीषमल्पम् ।
कान्तिः प्रसादः स्वरसोम्यतां च योगप्रवृत्तेः प्रथमं हि चिह्नम् ॥
ālolyam ārogyam aniṣṭhuratvaṃ gandhaḥ śubho mūtra-purīṣam alpam /
kāntiḥ prasādaḥ svara-saumyatā ca yoga-pravṛtteḥ prathamaṃ hi cihnam //
ہلکاپن، صحت، سختی کا نہ ہونا، بدن کی خوشبو، پیشاب و پاخانے کی کمی، نورانیت، صفائی/اطمینان اور آواز کی نرمی—یہ یوگ میں مشغولیت کی پہلی نشانیاں ہیں۔

Yoga is validated by ethical and physiological refinement—mildness, clarity, and balanced bodily functions—rather than by claims of power.
Upadeśa on yogic progress markers; not pancalakṣaṇa.
The signs point to prāṇa becoming regulated and sattva predominating: radiance and serenity indicate inner coherence; reduced excretions symbolize efficient assimilation and diminished tamas.
